Buenos Aires is full of creatives, both local and international. As word of the city’s cultural prowess has spread worldwide in recent years, more and more people have flocked to the Argentine capital to avail of its incredible cultural offerings. We round up the best places to meet other creatives in Buenos Aires.

La Maquinita

Creatives in Buenos Aires

This popular co-working space in Palermo and Villa Crespo was one of the original hangouts for creatives. Now there are a few more spaces like this around the city, but La Maquinita still remains head and shoulders above the rest. With evening events that allow people to come together and mingle and network, it is a great place to make contacts and meet like-minded people.

1. WeWork

Market

Co-working goliath has taken over an entire purpose-built tower in Buenos Aires’ Retiro area. It ain’t cheap to get a spot, but luckily for those who aren’t in the market for a fixed desk in this hip, millennial enclave, WeWork are doing summer Mondays, where you can avail of their workspace for the afternoon every Monday in February.

4. Local

Cafe

This cafe/gallery/tattoo shop/clothes store in Palermo Soho is a great place to go to work and grab a coffee and some food and chat with others who are there doing the same thing. A relaxed hangout spot, the staff are friendly and the vibe is relaxed, but you get the sense that there is just a well of creativity waiting to burst out from every pore of this porteno hotspot.

Local, Gorriti 5045, Buenos Aires, Argentina

5. Oasis Clubhouse

Bar

The only place that creative movers and shakers want to be seen is the Oasis Clubhouse in Palermo Soho. You may not get any work done, seeing as the bar serves great food and cocktails all day, and the turquoise pool is just calling out to be jumped into, but what you will certainly find are lots of other creatives doing exactly the same thing. Why work when you can play?
